    Hiya @Dovefromabove,
    I'm thinking I REALLY need to get the agapanthus out of the tunnel. Most  of them are in bud now

    Forecast low of 4C tonight. Maybe they'll have to wait a while longer

    My agapanthus are very slow this year ... but they live outside ... they’re also in desperate need of repotting. I’ll do them when they start dying back in the autumn ... if you think that’s ok @Hostafan1 ?

    Hmm ... it’s a big pot so a two man job ... and OH has the grass to cut, edges to trim and the beanpoles to put up this weekend  ... my shoulder/elbows limit me a bit. It may happen but ...

    Yvie is he seeing the SALT people? I used to say to the patients"swear at me", they would laugh, but it worked, sing the words. The swearing bit, they of course get frustrated, and the naughty word usually comes out accurately!

    Morning all,

    Quick run and then 1st dose of the vaccine is the plan for this morning.

    Morning all.

    The tiles have come! So have the builders. They are rather unusual. They look like patterned floor tiles from an old Italian villa that have faded in places from being walked on over hundreds of years. My fourth choice as the ones I chose kept being unavailable.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Hooray for the tiles @Busy-Lizzie 🥳. And hooray for the jab @Biglad 🥳🥳.

    Off to visit a flower farm this morning ....they said “bring wellies” 😝

    It was Lurgashall @steephill ...... didn’t see the landlord, but the landlady was lovely ☺️.  Bit of a trek for us, but their outdoor set up is very good, and we feel comfortable there.  It is indeed draughty @Lizzie27 ...but that’s the point.  I believe these days we call it “well ventilated” 🤪
